Condolence Messages

We were so sorry to read that your Mom had passed away. Our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family.

Wendy and I worked together in the Administration Department of the Calgary Public Library for many years. We had a special friendship and shared the love of our families, our faith, and many laughs. I have several books that she gave to me, all inscribed with her beautiful handwriting, which I cherish.
